Introduction and explanation of the reason for writing and publishing the following articles that are reflective of decades of research around the world
Introduction et explication de la raison de la rédaction et de la publication des articles suivants qui reflètent des décennies de recherche à travers le monde
Mind State of a Single Transition and Two Faces of the Same Energy Vision
The Dream of an Editor is to break the silence and publish analyses, reports and reports on taboo subjects, especially those which convey the reform of knowledge and the recasting of current events according to official standards. As a Moroccan, Morocco is our first idea of development and building benefits for the rest of the nation.
Our work is a journey strewn with obstacles to bring about our perception and our belief in the Written and the publication of articles addressing both the structures of thought and the carrying out actions that can make the debate fruitful and enrich the constructive activities of progress. social, economic development and operational integration of state public agencies in the pursuit, overhaul and realization of the objectives and performances going towards the realization of the authentic independence of the financial and productive economy of Morocco.
État d’esprit d’une transition unique et deux faces d’une même vision d’énergie
Le Rêve d’un Editeur est de briser le silence et de publier des analyses, des reportages et des reportages sur des sujets tabous, notamment ceux qui véhiculent la réforme des savoirs et la refonte de l’actualité selon les normes officielles. En tant que Marocain, le Maroc est notre première idée de développement et de création de bénéfices pour le reste de la nation.
Notre travail est un chemin semé d’embûches pour faire émerger notre perception et notre croyance dans l’Écrit et la publication d’articles abordant à la fois les structures de pensée et la conduite d’actions susceptibles de féconder le débat et d’enrichir les activités constructives de progrès. le développement social, économique et l’intégration opérationnelle des organismes publics de l’Etat dans la poursuite, la refonte et la réalisation des objectifs et performances allant vers la réalisation de l’indépendance authentique de l’économie financière et productive du Maroc.
The counterpart, as in the case of United States investments in a multipolar world, Morocco is choosing:
1 – Targets both at the level of the positioning of the Moroccan Economy on the energy supply chain which is the most important and the most vulnerable at the level of the international market as it is the most profitable at the level of seasonal variations.
2 – Objectives centered on the current multipolar and neutrality in relation to the geo-strategic aims of a competitive nature between the West – United States and Allies + European Union on one side and BRIC, China, Russia and the Dandinons who waddle between the two blocs: like India and the other countries of the South.
3 – Morocco seeks to prove its capacity to replace clean and renewable energies as a national export and as a Magnet for the attractiveness of foreign direct investments which consider Electric Energy as one of the main elements of their risk analysis concerning the host countries of their companies.
4 – Morocco needs to assert itself at the level of the production and transformation of Electric Energy at the level of its offer as a commodity in order to establish its industrialize strategy which will be the new and next stage, namely Emergence of an offer of local and regional solutions for international demand for the International Division of Technological Work, Logistics based on niches of the mastery of digital knowledge and its extension of robotic intelligence.
5 – Morocco is moving forward, building itself and moving towards the establishment of an economy equipped with all the assets to make it a national economic structure diversified regionally and homogeneous at the national level as a stakeholder in the concert of nations hosting national industries located on the periphery of those of other Western and Eastern countries.
These economies, through their past collaborations and their present competition, have far exceeded the framework of the sole “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” and “Assembly Line – Asymmetrical Assembly Line” asymetric as the basis for the control of the creation and innovation.
These countries, especially in South-West Asia, including China, are now located in an open and spontaneously competitive space at the level of manufacturing and the asymmetrical production of products and services offered for direct and variable consumption by consumers now acquired through selection. products based on their own criteria of choice and demonstration effect and having no consideration for the national origin of the product consumed.
A leveling of supply and demand is found at the level of purchasing power, the price of the product, the quality of its utility, the reliability of distribution logistics and customer service as well as the proximity of the international consumer market in power.
La contrepartie comme le cas des investissements des Etats Unis dans un monde multipolaire, le Maroc est en train de choisir:
1 – Des cibles a la fois au niveau du positionnement de l’Économie du Maroc sur la chaîne d’approvisionnement énergétique qui la plus importante et la plus vulnérable au niveau du marche international comme elle est la plus rentable au niveau des variations saisonnières.
2 – Des objectifs centrés sur les actuelles multipolaires et la neutralité par rapport aux visées géo-stratégiques d’ordre concurrentielles entre l’Occident – Etats-Unis et Alliés + Union Européenne d’un coté et BRIC, Chine, Russie et les Dandinons qui dandinent entre les deux blocs: comme l’Inde et les autres pays du Sud.
3 – Le Maroc cherche a se prouver sa capacité de substituer les énergies propres et renouvelables en tant qu’exportation nationale et en tant que Magnet pour l’attractivité des investissements directs étrangers qui considèrent l’Énergie Electrique en tant qu’un des principaux éléments de leur analyse des risques concernant les pays hôtes de leurs entreprises.
4 – Le Maroc a besoin de se faire valoir au niveau de la production et la transformation de l’Énergie Electrique au niveau de son offre comme commodité afin d’asseoir sa stratégie industrialisable qui sera la nouvelle et la prochaine étape a savoir l’Émergence d’une offre de solutions locales et régionales pour la demande internationale pour la Division International du Travail Technologique, Logistiques basée sur des créneaux de la maîtrise du savoir numérique et sa prolongation de l’intelligence robotique.
5 – Le Maroc s’avance, se construit et se dirige vers l’instauration d’une économie dotée de tous les atouts pour en faire une structure économique nationale diversifiée régionalement et homogène au niveau nationale en tant que partie prenante du concert des nations abritant des industries nationales localisées a la périphérie de celles des autres pays occidentaux et orientaux.
Ces économies a travers leurs collaborations passées et leurs concurrences présentes ont largement dépassées le cadre de la seule “Screwdriver Factory – Tourne-vise Usine” et “Assembly Line – Ligne d’Assemblage” asymétrique comme base et comme seule maîtrise de la création et de l’innovation.
Ces pays surtout du Sud-Ouest Asiatique y compris la Chine se situent dorénavant dans un espace ouvert et concurrentiel spontané au niveau de la manufacture et la production asymétrique des produits et des services offert a la consommation directe et variable des consommateurs dorénavant acquis a la sélection des produits basés sur leur propre critères de choix et d’effet de démonstration et n’ayant aucune considération pour l’origine nationale du produit consommé.
Un nivellement de l’offre comme de la demande se rencontre au niveau du pouvoir d’achat, du prix du produit, la qualité de son utilité, la fiabilité de la logistique de distribution et du service clients ainsi que la proximité du marché consommateur international en puissance.
My concepts and my ideas put forward in this text deserve further study by decision-makers, political leaders, state officials, researchers, academicians and business leaders in Morocco.
Since the end of the 1970s I have been writing and analyzing this phenomenon of transition and transformation of economies, Africa search for a Model of Development in the first place.
A year later, I started my research on Industrial Development in Morocco and what is the central role of the State in lifting the economy to a take-off, growth, and steady development of the most important industrial sectors and productions driving the Moroccan economy and providing the highest return and employment as well as contribution in the exports.
While I was a young student at Sciences Po Grenoble in France, where I lived one of the most devastating in my life stories which undermined all the ingredients and opportunities for another Made In Great Britain future of the time but my pride to be an African and to remain so was worth all the losses I endured thereafter like a cascade of magma burning everything in my path. My wounds have never been healed but my African dignity is my eternal strength
I am proud to have always supported Africa wherever I go and this through the Education I received from my Mother and my Father, Rahma Wa Ghofrane for all our parents, Amen

Mon concepts et mes idées avancés dans ce texte méritent un approfondissement de la part des décideurs, des leaders politiques, de responsables de l’Etat, des chercheurs, des académiciens et des chefs d’entreprises au Maroc.
Depuis la fin des années 70 que j’écris et analyse ce phénomène de la transition et de la transformation des économies, en premier le Maroc.
Un an plus tard, j’ai commencé mes recherches sur le développement industriel au Maroc et sur le rôle central de l’État dans l’élévation de l’économie vers un décollage, une croissance et un développement régulier des secteurs industriels et des productions les plus importants qui stimulent l’économie marocaine et offrant le rendement et l’emploi les plus élevés ainsi qu’une contribution aux exportations.
Alors que j’étais jeune étudiant à Sciences Po Grenoble en France, où j’ai vécu l’une des histoires les plus dévastatrices de ma vie qui a miné tous les ingrédients et opportunités pour un autre futur Made In Great Britain de l’époque, mais ma fierté d’être Africain et le rester valait toutes les pertes que j’ai endurées par la suite comme une cascade de magma brûlant tout sur mon passage. Mes blessures n’ont jamais été guéries mais ma dignité africaine est ma force éternelle
Je suis fier d’avoir toujours soutenu l’Afrique partout où je vais et cela à travers l’Éducation que j’ai reçue de ma Mère et de mon Père, Rahma Wa Ghofrane pour tous nos parents, Amen

No need to mention 100% made in Morocco or Made in Morocco
Le Maroc: Destination Manufacture Africaine
Le Slogan Deviendra:
Manufacturée au Maroc
Plus besoin de mentionner 100% fait au Maroc ou Fait au Maroc
Here is my modest contribution to advance the discussion and to stimulate the debate about national energy that is “essential and/or detrimental” to any model development and if we are seeking to have our industries to be the hub for the Manufacturing sector located between Europe, North America, Middle and Fareast and our Africa, we need to have a Great Power diversified and plural in its source like in its energetic provision based on national independence of our Energy Policy.
Just for matter of location and extension, China has developed a Solar Farm that can provide power to the entire Country of Sierra Leone.
Voici ma modeste contribution pour faire avancer la discussion et stimuler le débat sur l’énergie nationale « essentielle et/ou préjudiciable » à tout développement de modèle et si nous cherchons à faire de nos industries la plaque tournante du secteur manufacturier situé entre l’Europe , Amérique du Nord, Moyen et Extrême-Orient et notre Afrique, nous avons besoin d’avoir une Grande Puissance diversifiée et plurielle dans sa source ainsi que dans son approvisionnement énergétique basé sur l’indépendance nationale de notre politique énergétique.
Juste pour des questions d’emplacement et d’extension, la Chine a développé une ferme solaire capable de fournir de l’électricité à l’ensemble du pays de la Sierra Leone.
China has just connected what it believes to be the world’s biggest solar power plant to the grid in northwestern Xinjiang. The plant covers an area of 200,000 acres and is reported to have an output of 6.09 billion kWh annually.
The new plant is in the deserts near the region’s capital Ürümqi. The site came online this Monday (June 3) and is being run by the Chinese state-owned Power Construction Corporation, co-owned by the China Africa Development Fund and the Shenzhen Energy Group, with a respective stake of 50% each.
La Chine vient de connecter ce qu’elle considère comme la plus grande centrale solaire du monde au réseau du nord-ouest du Xinjiang. L’usine couvre une superficie de 200 000 acres et aurait une production annuelle de 6,09 milliards de kWh.

We’re part of @xlinks_uk’s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco, unlocking more reliable, cheap and clean electrons 20 hours a day. “What’ll we do when the wind’s not blowing in the UK?” “Get sunshine from Morocco.”
@xlinks_uk‘s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco.
In Britain, the tiny Devon village of 286 people is linked to MOROCCO by the world’s longest £16 billion submarine cable
The village of Alverdiscott, Devon, is the final destination of the submarine cable project £16 billion marine The village of 286 is linked to a line to Morocco. The scheme will import solar and wind power to power seven million homes by 2030
The Answer my British Friend is Blowing in the Wind !!!
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project will be a new electricity generation facility entirely powered by solar and wind energy combined with a battery storage facility. Located in Morocco’s renewable energy-rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun, it will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 3,800km HVDC sub-sea cables.
This “first of a kind” project will generate 10.5GW of zero-carbon electricity from the sun and wind to deliver 3.6GW of reliable energy for an average of 20+ hours a day. This is enough to provide low-cost, clean power to over 7 million British homes by 2030. Once complete, the project will be capable of supplying 8 percent of Great Britain’s electricity needs.
Alongside the consistent output from its solar panels and wind turbines, an onsite 20GWh/5GW battery facility will provide sufficient storage to reliably deliver each and every day, a dedicated, near-constant source of flexible and predictable clean energy for Britain, designed to complement the renewable energy already generated across the UK.
When domestic renewable energy generation in the United Kingdom drops due to low winds and short periods of sun, the project will harvest the benefits of long hours of sun in Morocco alongside the consistency of its convection Trade Winds, to provide a firm but flexible source of zero-carbon electricity.
British renewable energy company Xlinks is the developer of the project which will cover an area of around 579 square miles (1,500 square kilometers) in Morocco. A 10.5 gigawatt (GW) solar and wind farm will be built in the Moroccan region of Guelmim-Oued Noun. The cables will run above ground from the Power Plant until they reach the town of Tantan, where they will run underground.
The laying of the cable will be done with the help of fishing fleets, and the planned route of the cable avoids as many conservation areas as possible. Following a shallow water route from Morocco to the UK, via Spain, Portugal and France, these cables will connect to the UK national grid in Devon.
Clean energy will thus be connected exclusively to the UK via 2,361 miles (3,800 km) and this with high voltage, direct current (HVDC) submarine cables and are used because of their ability to reduce inefficiencies when transporting energy.
This project is part of the drive to achieve a national net-zero electricity grid by 2035. Xlinks says the Morocco-UK electricity project will be able to power 7 million UK homes in by 2030, representing up to 8% of UK energy needs.
The project will cost $21.9 billion. Xlinks will build 7 GW of solar power and 3.5 GW of wind power, as well as 20 GWh/5 GW on-site battery storage, in Morocco. The transmission cable will consist of four cables. The first cable will be active in early 2027 and the other three should be launched in 2029. An agreement has been reached with the National Grid for two 1.8 GW connections at Alverdiscott in Devon.
Update April 21, 2022:
Submarine cable maker XLCC will build a factory in Hunterston, Scotland, and its first production will be for the Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project. Alverdiscott in North Devon will provide four 2,361-mile (3,800 km) submarine cables, the first phase between 2025 and 2027 linking wind and solar power generated in Morocco. This initiative will nearly double the current global production of HVDC cable manufacturing. The world’s longest submarine cables will require 90,000 metric tons of steel, and XLCC signed Britain’s Steel Charter in Parliament this week, in which it pledged to use British steel.
Why go all the way to Morocco to get electricity for the UK?
A response made on October 3, 2021, is given by a British news outlet:
At the beginning of October 2021, this project was estimated at 16 billion pounds sterling and aims to circumvent the fundamental problems of British wind and solar energy. Our winds are unpredictable and tend to blow at times of day when electricity demand is lowest. As it is for the British sun, well.
Meanwhile, in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region of Morocco, where the green power will be produced, reliable trade winds blow year-round. Equally practical, the wind speed at the Morocco site increases in the late afternoon and evening, coinciding with peak demand periods in the UK.
The sun in Morocco also shines about 3,500 hours a year. By contrast, Britain averages only 1,500 hours of sunshine per year. And because the sun burns more intensely in North Africa, the solar panels each produce about three times as much electricity there as in the UK, even in winter when British need electricity the most for heating and the light.
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power project consists of building an inordinate amount of new kits to generate and transport green energy. This means covering 1,500 km2 of Moroccan desert with solar panels, wind turbines and a huge battery storage unit. And copper or aluminum submarine cables, wrapped in polythene insulation, will carry the generated energy to Devon. Four such cables are required, each threaded along a shallow undersea route through Spain, Portugal and France to Alverdiscott.
In the village, two 1.8 GW voltage source converter stations, which look like massive Meccano skeletons, will be built. (1.8 GW is the planned generation capacity for the Norfolk Vanguard wind farm project in the North Sea, which would consist of 180 turbines up to 1,150 feet tall.)
An answer made on April 21, 2022, in a word, the Resilience that is given by the company that is responsible for this project, Xlinks .
Xlinks explains: Morocco benefits from ideal solar and wind resources, necessary to develop renewable projects that could guarantee adequate electricity production throughout the year. It has the third highest Global Horizontal Radiation (GHI) in North Africa, which is 20% higher than the Spanish GHI and more than twice that of the UK. In addition, the shortest winter day still offers more than 10 hours of sunshine. This helps deliver generation profiles that meet the needs of the UK electricity market, particularly during periods of low offshore wind generation.
Remote generation and interconnection between distant geographic regions with inversely correlated weather systems will be more effective in addressing supply and demand imbalances over longer periods of time.
Xlinks notes that solar panels generate about three times more electricity in Morocco than that produced in the UK. Additionally, solar panels in Morocco have a higher capacity to generate up to five times more electricity from January to March than those in the UK.
According to its promoters, this project should create nearly 10,000 jobs in Morocco, including 2,000 permanent jobs.

Un nivellement de l’offre comme de la demande se rencontre au niveau du pouvoir d’achat, du prix du produit, la qualité de son utilité, la fiabilité de la logistique de distribution et du service clients ainsi que la proximité du marché consommateur international en puissance.
My concepts and my ideas put forward in this text deserve further study by decision-makers, political leaders, state officials, researchers, academicians and business leaders in Morocco.
Since the end of the 1970s I have been writing and analyzing this phenomenon of transition and transformation of economies, Africa search for a Model of Development in the first place.
A year later, I started my research on Industrial Development in Morocco and what is the central role of the State in lifting the economy to a take-off, growth, and steady development of the most important industrial sectors and productions driving the Moroccan economy and providing the highest return and employment as well as contribution in the exports.
While I was a young student at Sciences Po Grenoble in France, where I lived one of the most devastating in my life stories which undermined all the ingredients and opportunities for another Made In Great Britain future of the time but my pride to be an African and to remain so was worth all the losses I endured thereafter like a cascade of magma burning everything in my path. My wounds have never been healed but my African dignity is my eternal strength
I am proud to have always supported Africa wherever I go and this through the Education I received from my Mother and my Father, Rahma Wa Ghofrane for all our parents, Amen
Africa between the Walls of Sciences Po Grenoble – France: Right-wing Extremist Fortress and False Progressives in 1977-78
Mon concepts et mes idées avancés dans ce texte méritent un approfondissement de la part des décideurs, des leaders politiques, de responsables de l’Etat, des chercheurs, des académiciens et des chefs d’entreprises au Maroc.
Depuis la fin des années 70 que j’écris et analyse ce phénomène de la transition et de la transformation des économies, en premier le Maroc.
Un an plus tard, j’ai commencé mes recherches sur le développement industriel au Maroc et sur le rôle central de l’État dans l’élévation de l’économie vers un décollage, une croissance et un développement régulier des secteurs industriels et des productions les plus importants qui stimulent l’économie marocaine et offrant le rendement et l’emploi les plus élevés ainsi qu’une contribution aux exportations.
Alors que j’étais jeune étudiant à Sciences Po Grenoble en France, où j’ai vécu l’une des histoires les plus dévastatrices de ma vie qui a miné tous les ingrédients et opportunités pour un autre futur Made In Great Britain de l’époque, mais ma fierté d’être Africain et le rester valait toutes les pertes que j’ai endurées par la suite comme une cascade de magma brûlant tout sur mon passage. Mes blessures n’ont jamais été guéries mais ma dignité africaine est ma force éternelle
Je suis fier d’avoir toujours soutenu l’Afrique partout où je vais et cela à travers l’Éducation que j’ai reçue de ma Mère et de mon Père, Rahma Wa Ghofrane pour tous nos parents, Amen

Here is my modest contribution to advance the discussion and to stimulate the debate about national energy that is “essential and/or detrimental” to any model development and if we are seeking to have our industries to be the hub for the Manufacturing sector located between Europe, North America, Middle and Fareast and our Africa, we need to have a Great Power diversified and plural in its source like in its energetic provision based on national independence of our Energy Policy.
Just for matter of location and extension, China has developed a Solar Farm that can provide power to the entire Country of Sierra Leone.
Voici ma modeste contribution pour faire avancer la discussion et stimuler le débat sur l’énergie nationale « essentielle et/ou préjudiciable » à tout développement de modèle et si nous cherchons à faire de nos industries la plaque tournante du secteur manufacturier situé entre l’Europe , Amérique du Nord, Moyen et Extrême-Orient et notre Afrique, nous avons besoin d’avoir une Grande Puissance diversifiée et plurielle dans sa source ainsi que dans son approvisionnement énergétique basé sur l’indépendance nationale de notre politique énergétique.
Juste pour des questions d’emplacement et d’extension, la Chine a développé une ferme solaire capable de fournir de l’électricité à l’ensemble du pays de la Sierra Leone.
China has just connected what it believes to be the world’s biggest solar power plant to the grid in northwestern Xinjiang. The plant covers an area of 200,000 acres and is reported to have an output of 6.09 billion kWh annually.
The new plant is in the deserts near the region’s capital Ürümqi. The site came online this Monday (June 3) and is being run by the Chinese state-owned Power Construction Corporation, co-owned by the China Africa Development Fund and the Shenzhen Energy Group, with a respective stake of 50% each.

We’re part of @xlinks_uk’s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco, unlocking more reliable, cheap and clean electrons 20 hours a day. “What’ll we do when the wind’s not blowing in the UK?” “Get sunshine from Morocco.”
@xlinks_uk‘s project to build a giant cable between Devon and Morocco.
In Britain, the tiny Devon village of 286 people is linked to MOROCCO by the world’s longest £16 billion submarine cable
The village of Alverdiscott, Devon, is the final destination of the submarine cable project £16 billion marine The village of 286 is linked to a line to Morocco. The scheme will import solar and wind power to power seven million homes by 2030
The Answer my British Friend is Blowing in the Wind !!!
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project will be a new electricity generation facility entirely powered by solar and wind energy combined with a battery storage facility. Located in Morocco’s renewable energy-rich region of Guelmim Oued Noun, it will be connected exclusively to Great Britain via 3,800km HVDC sub-sea cables.
This “first of a kind” project will generate 10.5GW of zero-carbon electricity from the sun and wind to deliver 3.6GW of reliable energy for an average of 20+ hours a day. This is enough to provide low-cost, clean power to over 7 million British homes by 2030. Once complete, the project will be capable of supplying 8 percent of Great Britain’s electricity needs.
Alongside the consistent output from its solar panels and wind turbines, an onsite 20GWh/5GW battery facility will provide sufficient storage to reliably deliver each and every day, a dedicated, near-constant source of flexible and predictable clean energy for Britain, designed to complement the renewable energy already generated across the UK.
When domestic renewable energy generation in the United Kingdom drops due to low winds and short periods of sun, the project will harvest the benefits of long hours of sun in Morocco alongside the consistency of its convection Trade Winds, to provide a firm but flexible source of zero-carbon electricity.
British renewable energy company Xlinks is the developer of the project which will cover an area of around 579 square miles (1,500 square kilometers) in Morocco. A 10.5 gigawatt (GW) solar and wind farm will be built in the Moroccan region of Guelmim-Oued Noun. The cables will run above ground from the Power Plant until they reach the town of Tantan, where they will run underground.
The laying of the cable will be done with the help of fishing fleets, and the planned route of the cable avoids as many conservation areas as possible. Following a shallow water route from Morocco to the UK, via Spain, Portugal and France, these cables will connect to the UK national grid in Devon.
Clean energy will thus be connected exclusively to the UK via 2,361 miles (3,800 km) and this with high voltage, direct current (HVDC) submarine cables and are used because of their ability to reduce inefficiencies when transporting energy.
This project is part of the drive to achieve a national net-zero electricity grid by 2035. Xlinks says the Morocco-UK electricity project will be able to power 7 million UK homes in by 2030, representing up to 8% of UK energy needs.
The project will cost $21.9 billion. Xlinks will build 7 GW of solar power and 3.5 GW of wind power, as well as 20 GWh/5 GW on-site battery storage, in Morocco. The transmission cable will consist of four cables. The first cable will be active in early 2027 and the other three should be launched in 2029. An agreement has been reached with the National Grid for two 1.8 GW connections at Alverdiscott in Devon.
Update April 21, 2022:
Submarine cable maker XLCC will build a factory in Hunterston, Scotland, and its first production will be for the Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project. Alverdiscott in North Devon will provide four 2,361-mile (3,800 km) submarine cables, the first phase between 2025 and 2027 linking wind and solar power generated in Morocco. This initiative will nearly double the current global production of HVDC cable manufacturing. The world’s longest submarine cables will require 90,000 metric tons of steel, and XLCC signed Britain’s Steel Charter in Parliament this week, in which it pledged to use British steel.
Why go all the way to Morocco to get electricity for the UK?
A response made on October 3, 2021, is given by a British news outlet:
At the beginning of October 2021, this project was estimated at 16 billion pounds sterling and aims to circumvent the fundamental problems of British wind and solar energy. Our winds are unpredictable and tend to blow at times of day when electricity demand is lowest. As it is for the British sun, well.
Meanwhile, in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region of Morocco, where the green power will be produced, reliable trade winds blow year-round. Equally practical, the wind speed at the Morocco site increases in the late afternoon and evening, coinciding with peak demand periods in the UK.
The sun in Morocco also shines about 3,500 hours a year. By contrast, Britain averages only 1,500 hours of sunshine per year. And because the sun burns more intensely in North Africa, the solar panels each produce about three times as much electricity there as in the UK, even in winter when British need electricity the most for heating and the light.
The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power project consists of building an inordinate amount of new kits to generate and transport green energy. This means covering 1,500 km2 of Moroccan desert with solar panels, wind turbines and a huge battery storage unit. And copper or aluminum submarine cables, wrapped in polythene insulation, will carry the generated energy to Devon. Four such cables are required, each threaded along a shallow undersea route through Spain, Portugal and France to Alverdiscott.
In the village, two 1.8 GW voltage source converter stations, which look like massive Meccano skeletons, will be built. (1.8 GW is the planned generation capacity for the Norfolk Vanguard wind farm project in the North Sea, which would consist of 180 turbines up to 1,150 feet tall.)
An answer made on April 21, 2022, in a word, the Resilience that is given by the company that is responsible for this project, Xlinks .
Xlinks explains: Morocco benefits from ideal solar and wind resources, necessary to develop renewable projects that could guarantee adequate electricity production throughout the year. It has the third highest Global Horizontal Radiation (GHI) in North Africa, which is 20% higher than the Spanish GHI and more than twice that of the UK. In addition, the shortest winter day still offers more than 10 hours of sunshine. This helps deliver generation profiles that meet the needs of the UK electricity market, particularly during periods of low offshore wind generation.
Remote generation and interconnection between distant geographic regions with inversely correlated weather systems will be more effective in addressing supply and demand imbalances over longer periods of time.
Xlinks notes that solar panels generate about three times more electricity in Morocco than in the UK. Additionally, solar panels in Morocco have a higher capacity to generate up to five times more electricity from January to March than those in the UK.
According to its promoters, this project should create nearly 10,000 jobs in Morocco, including 2,000 permanent jobs.

Empowering African Farmers: J-Palm’s Transformative Grant
This title highlights the impact of the $250K USADF grant on empowering smallholder oil palm farmers in Liberia and the positive economic development, which is valuable for search engine optimization.
Africa certainly needs investments, but it also needs self-management and processing of its resources from raw to final products. Emphasizing efforts to combat the historical exploitation of African resources and promote local processing.
Investment in integration upstream and downstream
The journey from palm oil, coffee beans, and cacao farm to a Soap Bar, Coffee Cup, and Chocolate Bar involves intermediaries, making transparency difficult.
The exploitation of natural resources from Africa has a long history, and it extends beyond agricultural products, it includes mining and other natural and human resources.
During colonial times, European powers exploited Africa’s resources, including cacao, rubber, and minerals. The legacy of this exploitation still affects African economies today. The terms of trade have often favored industrialized nations over African producers.
$250K USADF grant and a bar of soap $24.99 – the Price for Pacha and can be only afforded by Pacha the rest of the “dirty hands”, get Palmolive for $99 at 99 Cents Store.
This reminds me of the story of the price of a Starbucks coffee cup sold in New York and the price of Coffee Beans bought by Starbucks in Ethiopia, with the difference between the two in cost, is just Hot water added at the end.
Starbucks is the largest coffee chain worldwide, bringing in annual revenue of $32.3 billion (2022). This revenue has increased to $35 billion as of June 2023.
Starbucks Retail Prices:
When it comes to purchasing coffee beans from Starbucks, there is something for everyone.
Prices vary depending on the type of bean and packaging:
A one-pound bag of Ethiopia coffee retails for $13.95 U.S. [Listed in Starbucks website on 6/3/2024]
Given that Starbucks buys about 800 million pounds of coffee every year, or about 5 percent of the world’s coffee, Burns says, “the potential to positively impact the lives and livelihoods of farmers and their communities is tremendous.
The average cost range for a pound of ground coffee is $8-$20. The average pound of coffee can make roughly 24-46 cups of coffee. That’s an average of just 26 cents per cup! Jan 22, 2024
Yes, indeed, burning the price to less than US$ 0.62 per pound has a real impact on African farmers, of course.
Specific details about Starbucks’ purchase price per pound of coffee in Africa are not disclosed publicly.
Wholesale Price Ranges in South Africa:
In South Africa, the approximate wholesale price range for coffee (both beans and ground) varies:
The disparity between the price of a Starbucks coffee cup in New York and the cost of coffee beans purchased by Starbucks in Ethiopia is a thought-provoking example of value chains and economic dynamics.
All the fuzz of marketing, branding, and other value addition, labor and overhead, packaging, and presentation that Starbucks claims as additional expenses are inclusive and intrinsic to any business operations of the same kind in a competitive environment or not.
While Ethiopia’s Challenge is faced with a well-designed strategic offer of Low Profit for Farmers receiving a small share of the final retail price is exposed globally to supply, demand, and market speculation and has no control over the branding and marketing power that Starbucks enjoys.
This is not just coffee problem of equity, it is the same process of exploitation for other natural products and mineral resources extracted from Africa, Cacao was another example before Africans understood the process of exploitation they were subject to and organized themselves which allowed them to decide by themselves to whom to sell and what conditions and terms they choose, including the pricing.
Like coffee, cacao (the raw material for chocolate) has faced similar challenges. African countries, particularly those in West Africa (such as Ivory Coast and Ghana), are major cacao producers.
However, for decades, the cacao industry has grappled with issues such as child labor, low prices paid to farmers, and lack of transparency in supply chains.
Many African cacao farmers have struggled to earn a fair income despite their essential role in producing chocolate.
Starbucks aims for profitability and Ethiopians aim for survival.
J-Palm Liberia , led by the amazing Mahmud Johnson works to empower smallholder oil palm processors in rural Liberian communities by installing mini-mills in villages, to reduce processing time by 90% and improve palm oil yield by 50-100%.
With the support of a $250K USADF grant, J-Palm expanded its operations, constructing 20 additional palm oil processing sites, and expanding from five villages and 500 farmers to now serve more than 5000 smallholder oil palm farmers in 51 villages. 📈
This has transformed J-Palm’s operations, attracting additional financing and opportunities, including a partnership with Pacha Soap Co., a US-based manufacturer of all-natural soaps. You can now find Pacha Soap bars in Whole Foods Market stores across the U.S., made with J-Palm’s wild harvest palm kernel oil in the soap base! This is further supporting J-Palm’s ability to increase incomes for smallholder farmers and reach more communities in Liberia! 🇱🇷

Since its enactment in 2000, the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) has been at the core of U.S. economic policy and commercial engagement with Africa. AGOA provides eligible sub-Saharan African countries with duty-free access to the U.S. market for over 1,800 products, in addition to the more than 5,000 products that are eligible for duty-free access under the Generalized System of Preferences program.
To meet AGOA’s rigorous eligibility requirements, countries must establish or make continual progress toward establishing a market-based economy, the rule of law, political pluralism, and the right to due process. Additionally, countries must eliminate barriers to U.S. trade and investment, enact policies to reduce poverty, combat corruption, and protect human rights.
By providing new market opportunities, AGOA has helped bolster economic growth, promoted economic and political reform, and improved U.S. economic relations in the region.
32 countries are eligible for AGOA benefits in 2024. In 2015, Congress passed legislation modernizing and extending the program to 2025.

I was the Director of Graduate Business Programs at the Dominican University of San Rafael when Dr. Cherkaoui was teaching in our international MBA program. Said brought not only a solid academic background to the classroom but also a wealth of business experience both in the US and in Asia and Latin America. He is passionate about his students and his work outside the classroom. This made him one of the most effective faculty that we had teaching at the time.

On 29 May 2024, in Marrakech, Minister Mohcine Jazouli attended the opening of GITEX AFRICA, chaired by H.E. Mr. Aziz Akhannouch the Prime Minister, marking a significant milestone for Morocco’s digital future.
Oracle intends to increase its Moroccan Research & Development workforce to 1,000 information technology specialists. Oracle‘s expansion follows the inauguration of its Moroccan Development Center at Casanearshore / Technopolis Parks in Casablanca, where researchers leverage cloud, AI, and machine learning technologies to address the most pressing challenges in the fields of business, science, and the public sector.
“Oracle’s R&D center in Casablanca has already played a critical role in driving technical advances, improving cybersecurity, and developing new AI capabilities, [” “] By strengthening our R&D presence in Morocco, we will be able to leverage its vast talent pool to accelerate the development of solutions that will help our clients around the world grow their businesses and achieve success in their sectors,» said Safra Ada Catz, the CEO of Oracle Corporation.
Ms. Ghita Mezzour, PhD. added: “This ambitious project is aligned with the Royal Strategic Vision of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, which encourages the innovation and creativity of young Moroccans.”
It is estimated that 40% of new positions will be located outside the Greater Casablanca and Rabat-Salé-Kenitra regions, by opening new offices in Agadir this year, and in northern Morocco within the next two years.
In this center of excellence, young Moroccans will be at the forefront of the design and development of innovative solutions using the latest technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, cloud, and cybersecurity. These solutions will be deployed on a global scale, thus strengthening Morocco’s positioning as a digital hub for the entire region.
In the same horizon, sky, and cloud line, Amazon Web Services (AWS) is getting into the fold of the Moroccan and North Sahara Africa to offer cloud computing in Morocco and Senegal using its AWS Wavelength platform in partnership with Orange, which was announced on Wednesday 29, May 2024.
One of the first of its kind the services will be provided without having physical AWS infrastructure such as data centers. Natural collaboration obliges, Orange will use and branch its physical data centers to shelter the AWS services. This AWS-Orange partnership, beyond language differences and origins, is responding to the rise of demand and needs for speeder and secured computing operations from banks, telecom firms, and healthcare firms.
There is a sense of a Gold Rush in Africa attracting cloud operators to service the rising cloud market that is expected to grow by 15% yearly to reach $18 billion in 2028, according to Statista.
This agreement aims to establish two public cloud regions in Morocco.
The investment of $140 million over five years, will enable Oracle to establish a comprehensive suite of cloud services, with deployments in two data centers. This project will provide local and regional businesses with access to next generation cloud services, enhancing their efficiency and competitiveness.
Oracle Advent stimulates Interest and Strategic Partnership between Orange and Amazon
Amazon Web Services (AWS), an Amazon subsidiary that provides “cloud computing on demand” platforms and applications to individuals, businesses and governments, plans to offer “cloud computing” to Morocco and Senegal using its AWS Wavelength platform in collaboration with the company French Orange. This is what we read in a joint statement from the two companies, according to which this will be the first time that the services will be available in a country without physical AWS infrastructure such as data centers.

Tout comme la Banque Mondiale et la Communauté Européenne, la BAD soutient également PACTE ESRI de l’université marocaine. Le Conseil d’administration du groupe de la Banque africaine de développement (BAD) a approuvé un financement de 120 millions d’euros (M€) dans le cadre du programme d’appui à la transformation pour une université marocaine digitale, entrepreneuriale et inclusive (UM4.0).
C’est une excellente nouvelle pour le Maroc 👏 J’espère que les autres géants mondiaux du cloud, tels que Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS et Google GCP, choisiront également de s’installer ici, d’autant plus que le Maroc est l’un des pays leaders en Afrique 🙏

Yassine BENADDOU IDRISSI en fait ça consomme moins que les milliers de salles serveurs climatisées mais très mal-isolées de Tanger à Lagrouira. Consolider et centraliser dans un datacenter moderne qui respecte toutes les normes en vigueur du Green IT serait beaucoup mieux pour l’environnement.
Amine L. Avec tous mes respects, ca n’existe pas des normes en vigueur et green it avec les datacenters => C’est polluant et energivore surtout avec la nouvelle stratégie numérique 2030 vous verrez des datacenters naitre comme des champions mutualisés avec les bornes 5G …de quelle maroc vert on parle 🤔
👨💻☁️ Cloud/Systems Archirect | (ISC)² Member 🇲🇫🇲🇦
Yassine BENADDOU IDRISSI J’ai travaillé 7 ans au Maroc sur et dans des datacenters locaux privés, c’était CATASTROPHIQUE: Des climatiseurs pour serveurs qui refroidissaient de grandes salles de 100m2 à fond alors qu’il n’y avait que 4 serveurs et avec des fenêtres ouvertes. En terme de normes il y en a plusieurs: ISO 50001, LEED et j’en passe.
Amine L. Les normes sont faites pour faite travailler les cabinets de conseil c’est leur gain pain pas plus..ces normes meme dans les pays les plus développés ne sont pas respectés..ya tout un debat dans ce sens en France, Etats Unis surtout avec l’émergence de l’ia generative et les supercalculateurs quantiques bientot repandus.
Pr Mohamed Amine ISSAMI tout dépend des termes du contrat portant sur la localisation des données. En europe, certains pays ont plutôt opté à deux mesures. Pour les données stratégiques des entreprises nationales, l’hébergement doit être au niveau national ou européen par un opérateur national ou européen. Pour les données de l’Etat ayant trait à la souveraineté, l’hébergeur est un opérateur public national.See translationSee translation of this comment
